Wireless Cable Modem Gateway CG814WG v3 Reference Manual

Wireless Configuration 2-7

v1.0, June 2007

To restrict access based on MAC addresses:

1. Connect to the gateway and log in as described in “Viewing or Changing Wireless Settings” on

page 2-4.

2. Click Wireless Settings, and then select the Turn Access Control On check box.

When you enable access control, the access point only accepts connections from clients on the

selected access control list. This provides an additional layer of security.

3. Click the Setup Access List button to display the Access List.

The Access List displays a list of wireless clients that will have access to the wireless network

when the list is enabled.

Note: If you are configuring the gateway from a wireless computer, make sure to add

your computer’s MAC address to the Access List. Otherwise you will lose your

wireless connection when you click Apply. You must then access the gateway

from a wired computer, or from a wireless computer that is on the access

control list, to make any further changes.
